Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
Over one blisteringly hot summer in Berlin, shy 14-year-old Nora must contend with the many tribulations of early teenage years largely by herself. She gets her period for the first time, falls in love with another girl, begins to recognize her true identity—and learns to stand up for herself.
A seductive coming-of-age tale of sexual awakening, this luminous Berlin-set drama from Leonie Krippendorf simmers with summer vibes. Featuring a stellar lead performance from Lena Urzendowsky, the refreshingly authentic Cocoon serves up a dreamily poignant take on young romance and self-discovery.
